Re: DVC Resale Companies Review! Open Forum Discussion

We bought our points at BLT in Dec '08 and at VGC a few months later. I wish I'd done it early, but, like many I'd had less than pleasant experiences with other timeshare companies in the past. Even though we are regulars at Disneyland, I'd avoid DVC because of past experiences and the DVC resort were all pretty much east coast based. When I found out that a resort was being planned for Anaheim and the Grand California, I got a little more curious. While still very apprehensive, we decided to check it out during our Christmas trip in '08.

I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised. The first thing our Guide, Tony told us before he even opened the presentation folder... "I need to tell you, this needs to make sense to you, financially and for your vacation style. If it doesn't, I'm not going to sell it to you." This statement put me at easy almost immediately, and Tony never pushed the sale during the pitch, just what he felt were the benefits of Disney's program. While the DVC program is a great one, and I think truly doesn't take the best of timeshares and tries to eliminate bad, it was the way the presentation was made that sold me, probably a bit more than the program itself.

I haven't had the opportunity to work with any of the DVC Resale companies, but, would hope that they take a similar approach to that the DVC Castmember Guides.

We've used ResalesDVC (Jaki and Kinn) as both buyers and sellers and think they did a fantastic job in both roles.

Bought our initial BWV contract through them in '05 and went straight to them when circumstances moved us to sell 3 small-ish AKV contracts just a few months ago. They found buyers for all three contracts in about 5 weeks.

I think they suggest rational prices to their sellers. But, I imagine all 3 do... A lot of contracts just sit and sit.
